Iolair Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Some of you may have known Duckky Darwin, especially those of you who are former Millitant Collective members. Duckky also served in 2142 and Vanguard at different points in his career. In summary, Duckky lost his battle with cancer on June 10, 2011. A memorial was held for him in Citadel on June 16, 2011.Contents edited for readability in the forums (Content of "The Remembrance of Duckky Darwin" notecard): I write this in the deepest sympathy... of the passing of Joshua R. Crust, known as Duckky Darwin on Second Life. Whilst Duckky has been in and out of hospital within the past couple of months, his unfortunate soul passed away after a one-year illness on June 10th, 2011 in the Ohio State University James Cancer Center. Duckky Darwin was a hard-working, dedicated member to several military factions in the community that includes Militant Collective, 2142 and Vanguard Armed Forces. He was always keen in the work he did such as his photography, as well as spending time with his kids to which he was a caring... fun-loving father. Duckky was always bright and a friendly individual. He was popular amongst his friends, always willing to lend other people a hand when needed. Despite his suffering, he has remained positive and took life to the fullest. It is now that I simply ask members of the Second Life Military Community to remember this wonderful man.There are many that will read this who will wish to share similar condolences. If you would like to leave one for Duckky and all of his family, please contact LordBob Boa so that I can forward you the details. Some reading this however will not know Duckky personally, though you are thanked for viewing this remembrance notification. The 2142 military will be constructing a memorial dedicated to Duckky Darwin. If you also wish to contribute, please again contact LordBob Boa. The memorial will remain on the 2142 simulator for as long as it functions. May a such notable person stay in our hearts and memories forever.You will be missed. Joshua R.

Fox Cheri Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I visited Base today to at least pay my respects at the memorial. I might not have known Duckky on a personal level, nor met him, then my deepest condolences still are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
